`$FOO' where FOO is an environment variable name means to substitute
the value of that variable. The variable name should be terminated
with a character not a letter, digit or underscore; otherwise, enclose
the entire variable name in braces. For instance, in `ab$cd-x',
`$cd' is treated as an environment variable.
